What they're saying about Joleen
and Phil: "I want to thank you and Joleen for a
perfectly marvelous night at the Colgates''. Thru the years I seem to have
stumbled into more than my share of great musical evenings, but this was
absolutely the best. I think what impressed me most was the obvious impact
your interpersonal chemistry has on your music. You are both virtuosos in
your own right, but together the music is transcendent." "I don’t think I could have found somebody as perfect as you to play at my wedding...and the songs you played were ideal." - Melissa Teuton, bride

"Volan's
attention to detail, including his commitment to leave his guitar and
voice at the music's heart, makes this CD
{Changing Channels.}
a soulful, back-porch sing-along,
as opposed to the kind of Nashville knockoff that some folkies mistakenly
strive to make." - Malcolm Howard, "The Independent"
(see complete review)
"Phil Volan is an artist. His style is colored with nuance and graceful appropriateness. That's the striking quality about his acoustic composition, whether it's a vocal accompaniment or a solo line, it's always crisp and on-target." - Recording artist, Chuck Pyle "Phil is one of the best undiscovered talents in the Rocky Mountain region...his guitar playing, composition and vocal skills are truly amazing." - Steve Mesplé, Wind Machine "Phil's voice and attention to lyrics allows the soul of the songs to shine through." - Lyn Akers, KRCC "Volan & Uveges transformed the Steam Plant Theater into a cozy coffee house, with their engaging performance. The duo have great chemistry, and obviously enjoy performing together. These two are true entertainers." - "The Mountain Mail," Salida, CO "This CD {Favorite Colors} is heads above most of what I hear." - Will Ackerman, Founder of Windham Hill Records. "Favorite Colors is an impeccably performed and lushly recorded work...making some well-worn old friends feel brand new." - "Acoustic Musician Magazine" (click here for the full article) "Phil Volan's guitar work flows like a gentle stream, quiet and lovely...sublime solo work by Volan." - Eric Bosse, "The Independent" "The CD {Dancing on Thin Air} is a gentle assortment of both funny and reflective songs, beautifully performed." - Gill Asakawa, "The Gazette" "Beautiful harmonies, strong voices, light-touch instrumentals and clever lyrics are the common threads." - Donna Ladd, "Springs Magazine" About "Together We Can Heal:" "As you listen to the magical lyrics & music, you will pause to recall missing pieces of yourself as you feel a deep soul connection with others. That's what this recording is all about: remembering and sharing so Together We Can Heal." - Rabbi Dr. Earl A. Grollman, Author: "Living When A Loved One Has Died" |
